10 Reasons To Take Moringa for Cancer
Learn about 10 reasons why taking Moringa will help you defeat your cancer!
In my last Substack, we talked about how taking Moringa drives your energy and improves fatigue without caffeine. It is the first supplement, and we have tried several other adaptogens, such as ginseng, which has made a huge difference in my husband’s energy level and deep fatigue. Fatigue is a major issue in most health issues, including cancer.
Moringa has at least 10 properties to help you in your cancer or health crisis. This Substack is on how Moringa can improve your whole health picture, the creation of energy, and will benefit your recovery in many health crises.
Moringa is a tree with leaves, pods, flowers, and bark that is used in many parts of the world as food and for its amazing nutritional properties. The leaves are where the most vitamins and nutrients are found.
Moringa is different than most fruits and vegetables because it contains almost every nutrient needed for health.
It is one of the only plants that contains enough protein to sustain life! Moringa leaves contain adequate protein, vitamins, amino acids, and minerals, including calcium, beta-carotene, potassium, iron, and Vitamin C.
Moringa leaves are an answer to starvation, whether it be from the effects of cancer or lack of food resources!
Moringa is given to thousands as a supplement in 3rd world countries where there is severe starvation, and to mothers and babies who are in critical situations. It can mean the difference between life and death in countries such as Africa.
Cancer patients have trouble digesting food. They may be throwing up anything they try to eat. Moringa, given in water or a smoothie, can provide dense nutrition to their body to heal and give vital nutrients to the patient.
Most patients who are sick or cancer patients have severe deficiencies! Eating Moringa can correct those deficiencies!
According to Moringa experts, Moringa leaves grown in Africa contain the following nutrient density, gram for gram.
2 times the amount of protein in yogurt
4 times the amount of vitamin A as carrots
3 times the amount of potassium as bananas
4 times the amount of calcium as cow milk
7 times the amount of vitamin C as oranges
Moringa leaves contain trace minerals, flavonoids, glucosides, glucosinolates, zeatin, quercetin, and other nutrients that most foods raised in modern farming do not contain any more. The foods we eat in the US are lacking and have farming chemicals applied during the growing process, such as glyphosate.
Americans are suffering from a lack of important micronutrients needed for optimal health. These micronutrients are needed to regain health.
Moringa has properties that may help to defeat the cancer itself!
Potential Anticancer Properties, including breast cancer!
Moringa leaves contain niazimican, quercetin, ellagic acid, and chlorogenic acid, which in laboratory studies suppress the growth of certain lines of cancer cells, such as leukemia, breast, liver, and colorectal cancer.
Moringa can benefit women who have breast cancer.
An example is in breast cancer, where Moringa compounds target specific proteins found in breast cancer cell proteins, such as CDK-2. CDK-2 is important in treating estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer, which is one of the most common and deadliest cancers in the US!
Moringa has been shown in research studies to have benefits for other cancers as well.
BMC research study below on Moringa’s beneficial properties below, including benefits for your heart, to help control diabetes, control blood pressure, and treat ulcers:
Direct quotes from the research study below:
“Among 36 compounds of Moringa oleifera reported in literature, chlorogenic acid (1), quercetin (2), ellagic acid (3), niazirin (4), and kaempferol (5) showed good affinity with the target.”
It is used in many bacterial and fungal infections. It is a powerful cardio-tonic and has anti-oxidant, anti-cancer, anti-epileptic, and anti-inflammatory properties as well.
It is used to lower the glucose levels in diabetic patients and the blood pressure in others. It is also used to treat ulcers [32,33,34].
All of these activities are attributed to its constituents including alkaloids (moringine, moringinine), nitrile glycosides such as niazirin, glycosides of mustard oil, niaziminin A and B, flavonoids (kaempferol, quercetin, isoquercetin, rutin), phenolic acids (such as chlorogenic acid, gallic acid, and ellagic acid), Vitamins and β-carotenes, essential amino acids (such as methionine, cystine, and lysine), vanillin, 4-hydroxymellein, β-sitosterol and octacosanoic acid, aurantiamide acetate, 1,3 dibenzyl-urea [32, 35, 36].”
National Library of Medicine Research on Moringa and Cancer below:
“All Moringa parts are edible and have long been utilized by human beings (Fuglie, 1999). Moringa oleifera leaves are well-known to have numerous good biological activities, such as antioxidant, antiatherosclerotic, hypolipidaemic, and preventer of cardiac disorders (Chumark et al., 2008; Iqbal and Bhanger, 2006), immune activator (Faizi et al., 1994), and tumor suppressor (Murakami et al., 1998).
Moreover, Moringa leaves have been utilized for the treatment of malaria, hypertension, asthma, diabetes, and stomach problems, and to expel retained placenta, while a decoction of the root is used to treat malaria. Furthermore, the root and leaf extracts showed activity against Trypanosoma brucei”
Very recently, Al-Asmari et al., (2015) have investigated the remarkable effects of Moringa oleifera leaves and bark on breast MDA-MB-231 and colorectal HCT-8 cancerous cells. They found that Moringa oleifera extracts significantly exhibit apoptosis-mediated cell death and cell cycle arrest associated with remarkable changes in the cell phenotypic properties in both breast MDA-MB-231 and colorectal HCT-8 cancerous cell lines.
In summary, Moringa ML, MLn, Rc, and Ro extracts act as anti-cancer agent by decreasing cell proliferation and exhibiting apoptosis-mediated cell death in liver HepG2, colon HCT 116 and Caco-2, and breast MCF7 cancer cell lines, while Rc extract succeeded to spare healthy BHK-21 cell line with minimal cytotoxic effect.
Additionally, low cell survival and high apoptosis were detected upon treatment with the extracts of MLn/ML and Rc/Ro compared to control cells. Finally, our findings provide a growing evidence supporting the promising role of Moringa extracts as anti-cancer candidates and open a new vista for molecular analysis of their actions on the predominant signaling mechanisms responsible for cancer development. Therefore, Moringa extracts may represent a valuable therapeutic approach for aggressive breast, liver, and colorectal carcinomas.” National Library of Medicine Research
I would say in my opinion that adding Moringa to your cancer regimen is one of the important steps in fighting your cancer or health crisis!
